If there really is a climate crisis, shouldn’t EV’s conserve rather than extravagantly burn power for acceleration? From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:
Want to know for sure – and be able to prove – there’s no “climate crisis”? Just point to the EV – the supposed cure for it.
Specifically, point out the problem. Not the range. Nor the time it takes to recharge one of these battery powered devices. Those are limitations – and hassles – bought into by the people who own an EV.
The thing that gives the lie – to the idea that we must all drive an EV because of the supposedly looming “crisis” – is the fact that EVs are excessive.
None of them are designed to minimize the use of electrical energy or resources.
Think on that a moment.
If there is a crisis pending – an emergency! – then everything must be done to address it as aggressively as possible. If a ship is threatened with sinking, you do everything possible right now to prevent it from taking on more water. You don’t have the deckhands polish the brass.
Yet isn’t that essentially what the EVs being pushed onto the market are all about?
Every single one of them is overweight and over-powered. They all brag on how quickly they accelerate and that quickness is consumptive, is it not? Whether you are burning gas or electricity, it burns faster when you use it to get several thousand pounds of vehicle moving quickly. Such capability is certainly appealing. It is fun to get to 60 in 2.9 seconds. But if we are facing a crisis, how can designing a vehicle around an attribute as non-essential and frivolous as being able to launch itself quickly be anything other than a clue you are being lied to about the supposed “crisis”?
Climate cult and gaia worship is to take out the food supply as agriculture will get blamed for the wild weather.
